My firecrackers didn't show up until tonight and even still, I have no way of seeing the event - how many I have, where I rank etc ...

I think someone posted earlier that the firecrackers are just for extra points, not competition.

I think someone posted earlier that the firecrackers are just for extra points, not competition.

It looks like it is just 3 firecrackers and they show up at the same time as the cursed buildings (every 4 hours?). Each gives you 2 currency. I'm wondering if this will increase later when there are more cursed buildings in chapters 2 and 3.

.I don't have any Mulan characters so it will be nice to be able to buy her. I must have won the camp attraction and Lunar costume in those free Legendary chests a while back since I apparently have them lol. Not sure how I will fare in this event otherwise but it's a good way to stock gems (up to over 1k, I think I will open the last parade slot soon) and I can level up the stepsisters and WIR characters in the meantime.

Thank goodness, I thought they were hiding so well as that seems to be the most I could find each time.

Okay I’m pretty pissed about this glitch. It has taken my Mickey/peter pan character out every single time I’ve done it

 

[TheMaxRebo]

So I’m not sure what I should be using event credits on. Do I even have a chance at Crickee? Or should I just go for elastigirl and mulan? I don’t care about their attractions at all

Honestly I would focus on any characters you are missing and want - so in your case Elastigurl and Mulan .... if you have credits at the end you can go back and get things

 

[TheMaxRebo]

So many things wrong with that statement. People can do whatever they want with their money, and Gameloft put the gem bypass/skip button there for that exact reason, rather you and I like it or not.

I just don’t get why it would be worth it - the difference between like first place and 499th is you get a Mifficent Hat stand and some more EC - so I guess maybe a few new players willing to spend gems to get the hat stand but that’s been available several times already for older players

I get spending gems on some things for new or limited items but this just doesn’t seems like worth much .... but to each their own

According to the message from Gameloft, the glitch only affects the display (it's grayed out), but not the functionality. The characters are still fighting the tower. That seems to be true in my experience. The characters I send are gone fighting the tower and are shown as tired afterward.

 

[TheStarscream759]

Apparently it's just a graphic glitch because if you try to level that third character you've lost it will still say its doing the tower challenge. So my advice? It's best to ignore it and apparently they are working on fixing said glitch.

 

[cm387]

how do you collect currency in this event? Is it just through the tower challenge and the side quests for the featured characters? (plus the buildings & firecrackers but that's minimal)

 

[Figarro]

While I agree that people have every right to spend their money/gems, we also have the right to question their decisions. Looking at the rank rewards it doesn’t make any sense to spend gems this early in the tower challenge since we can only spend on the items in chapter one , for the next 5 days, I personally see no value in spending money/gems during chapter 1.

The ECs earned in chapter 1 will be available until the end of the event.
I don't have any of the Mulan characters, Elastigirl and Frozone around level 5-6 (got them from previous TC), but my LS characters are level 8 and higher.
My storyline characters are at higher levels too for chapter 1.
So, for me, if I were to spend gems, it would be better to do so on current chapter 1 than on next chapters

But it seems TC is getting more expensive each time. I was able to get Jack Jack, CR and The Mayor, but I'm not sure I can get Crikee this time

 

[rr333]

Do tokens for the Tremaines interfere with the challenge in any way?

They are all at level 3 and hanging out in the castle at the moment as I was leveling some L&S characters to 10 over the last few days.

Anyone?

I agree with the TC getting more expensive. I played hard for 12 hours yesterday and all my characters are very high level and I have about 3700 TC. I am not going to be able to play 12 hours a day for the next 3 days. And then it gets more expensive for the next sets of tokens. Luckily I already have all the characters and the buildings, all I need are the tokens but wondering if I am going to be able to get them all.

I noticed that myself. I don't ever recall needing 35 of any item, especially not the first one.

And while we're on this subject... hey, interns: How about offering a faster way to pick up each item. It takes three clicks for each item. Times that by 35 of the first item alone and W-T-F. I realize that you are only interns and your semester will be ending by May. But that's no reason not to consider making at least one significant contribution towards the game and seal your legacy at Gameloft as an intern who tried to make a difference.

 

[supernova]

Anyone?

I'm not sure what you are asking. First off, why do you have them at the castle instead of in the game? Second, you can use the characters as part of the Tower Challenge. Not sure what level they need to be to participate, but they are certainly included. As far as "interfering with the challenge", I don't understand what you mean.

 

[supernova]

how do you collect currency in this event? Is it just through the tower challenge and the side quests for the featured characters? (plus the buildings & firecrackers but that's minimal)

We do not collect currency or gems through the tower challenge. Only the event currency to be used towards the items that are part of the challenge. The good news is that the event doesn't cost any magic, either, so during the event you can just accumulate without spending (outside of leveling up non-challenge characters).

I noticed there was not much difference. For me just trying to play at my speed, no gems and stay under 150th place. Good enough and newer players can get the hat stand which would just go to Merlin for me.

Alright thanks I’ll do that! I don’t want the attractions that much but maybe I’ll try for them last and not go for crickee at all

Good point on the character issue. Since I have every character, it’s easy to forget that some players may not have all the characters required for a said chapter. That said, sense we can go back and purchase items from previous characters, wouldn’t it make more sense to spend the gems on chapter 3? That way you have a much better idea of how much EC you have and what you need for items/characters.

I noticed that myself. I don't ever recall needing 35 of any item, especially not the first one.

And while we're on this subject... hey, interns: How about offering a faster way to pick up each item. It takes three clicks for each item. Times that by 35 of the first item alone and ***.

That’s funny, I was just thinking the same thing. It would be nice if they could auto select any character from a grouping that has not been used and isn’t out on a job. Of course they would have to allow players to over ride that selection if they want to use someone else.

 

[mikegood2]

So I’m not sure what I should be using event credits on. Do I even have a chance at Crickee? Or should I just go for elastigirl and mulan? I don’t care about their attractions at all

I would definitely wait to spend any of your EC on Crikee items until chapter 3, since you can always go back and purchase items from previous chapters. That way you can do some simple math, or ask others on the board to do the math for you, and decide later. Plus your gonna be at WDW this week, so your not sure how much time you’re gonna have to play.
